Did Obama Orchestrate the Coup Against Michael Flynn?

Valentine’s Day was a day of orgasmic rapture for Democrats and media organizations in love with a secretive and powerful unelected cabal of spooks that has subverted the new president and badly hobbled his fledgling administration.

The left spent the day preening and waving the bloody and still dripping scalp of now former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn and revving up the red-baiting machine for a run at Donald Trump himself and look for more of the same until it becomes the new normal.

Despite hypocritical howls of phony righteous indignation over Flynn’s unforgivable sin of working to prevent a hot war with the Russians. The hit job on the former general not only has the appearance of a setup but sources have confirmed that is exactly the case.

In an intriguing piece at the Washington Free Beacon the hit job on Flynn was a black op executed to perfection by Obama loyalists.

The abrupt resignation Monday evening of White House national security adviser Michael Flynn is the culmination of a secret, months-long campaign by former Obama administration confidantes to handicap President Donald Trump’s national security apparatus and preserve the nuclear deal with Iran, according to multiple sources in and out of the White House who described to the Washington Free Beacon a behind-the-scenes effort by these officials to plant a series of damaging stories about Flynn in the national media.

The effort, said to include former Obama administration adviser Ben Rhodes—the architect of a separate White House effort to create what he described as a pro-Iran echo chamber—included a small task force of Obama loyalists who deluged media outlets with stories aimed at eroding Flynn’s credibility, multiple sources revealed.

The operation primarily focused on discrediting Flynn, an opponent of the Iran nuclear deal, in order to handicap the Trump administration’s efforts to disclose secret details of the nuclear deal with Iran that had been long hidden by the Obama administration.

Insiders familiar with the anti-Flynn campaign told the Free Beacon that these Obama loyalists plotted in the months before Trump’s inauguration to establish a set of roadblocks before Trump’s national security team, which includes several prominent opponents of diplomacy with Iran. The Free Beacon first reported on this effort in January.

Sources who spoke to the Free Beacon requested anonymity in order to speak freely about the situation and avoid interfering with the White House’s official narrative about Flynn, which centers on his failure to adequately inform the president about a series of phone calls with Russian officials.

Flynn took credit for his missteps regarding these phone calls in a brief statement released late Monday evening. Trump administration officials subsequently stated that Flynn’s efforts to mislead the president and vice president about his contacts with Russia could not be tolerated.

However, multiple sources closely involved in the situation pointed to a larger, more secretive campaign aimed at discrediting Flynn and undermining the Trump White House.

While this won’t receive any attention from a corrupt and contemptible establishment media, there have been crimes committed here that may very well go to the top of the Obama White House. The real investigations should be directed at outgoing administration figures who have been flirting with outright treason.
